There are plans for some improved disk QoS (I think it's on the roadmap).  The 
current mode of disk scheduling doesn't differentiate different service 
qualities.  I don't *think* it does accounting yet (this'd likely be added at 
the same time).

Unlike for network, there wasn't a standard Linux way to do this.  Maybe the 
pluggable Linux IO schedulers framework (possible merge in 2.6.10) would help 
with this work.

HTH,
Mark
